Hello New York City!

I hope you all had a great weekend! SHAW was away at the second annual SHAW PROMOTION camping trip in Lake Lackawaxen, Poconos, PA. Our moto here is always "Go big or go home!", so I made some calls to our good friends over at Sailor Jerry, PBR and Mercy (an anti hangover drink) and they were kind enough to sponsor (get drunk). I want to use this opportunity to thank all three companies for their amazing contribution; it was a trip none of us will ever forget, and thank you Mercy for keeping us all hangover free!! Check out photos from our trip HERE and check back on our "SHAW Time" blog and gallery for more fun photos!

"We're very lucky this Friday to have a live performance from Late Cambrian at TRASH! Drawing complimentary comparisons to early Weezer, The Promise Ring, etc, Late Cambrian are getting phenomenal reviews, and they only played their first show a mere month ago. This is your chance to catch an indie act before to their too big for you to afford a ticket! To get excited, download the DJ JESS electro-tinged remix of their first single "Those Middle Years ", then dance to the real thing this Friday night!
xxx,
DJ Jess"

Alright everyone, thank you very much for reading our weekly newsletter, we love you all!!
